Tubi exhaust issues

I recently purchased a 1991 Red NSX. Among other things already installed on the car is a Tubi exhaust serial #00092. It needed adjusted badly and had an exhaust leak on the drivers side, so I read up about them here on prime. What I found was:

1) The installer left out the gaskets.
2) The Tubi pipes required dremel work to mate with the cat properly.

Thanks to prime I knew to check the mate between the cat and muffler pipes and that some Tubi's required dremel work in that spot. It seals much better now, but not perfect because I still need the gaskets, and it's still crooked but sits a little better. If bending hangers doesn't fix it I'll have a muffler shop heat and bend the pipes a little.

I have Tubi #100. The dremel work was done by the previous owner and Larry B. It lined up pretty good, but not perfect.

But I updated my car to 02 rear and now my Tubi looks like this and fits perfectly. :biggrin:

I thought about doing the 02 rear and single tips and your pics almost made me do it, but I love the quad tips too much. One of the previous owners painted the rear bumper and lower valence and did a very bad job of it because the paint on the valence is falling off in the corners and the upper bumper is covered in orange peel. I'm having the rear bumper repainted, the front bumper shaved, Stacy's Signature Series side skirts and rear spats are on the way, and a Wings West lip will finish off the exterior.

The interior is next and first to go will be the indiglo gauges...
